Socks are now on the work table...along with a few various other on-going projects. This is a new yarn that I'm trying out ...wool & cashmere. Very soft! The pattern requires that I use five double pointed needles...a lot of needles to handle at one time. As I was working on finishing the last sock today, I suddenly realized that working with so many different needles is a lot like life. We weave so many different things into our lives at one time...weaving in and out, under and over, again and again. I sometimes become so overwhelmed with the thought of all I'm manipulating in my life! I have to just stop and consider my knitting. That with time, and much weaving in and out, I will accomplish it all in the end. It just takes a little time...one stitch at a time!

What a wonderful analogy. I am not a knitter. I can knit and perl (sp?), but that is it. I thought about taking classes, because knitted things are so pretty. You have inspired me to look into it. Thanks!Penny, Mosaic Artistwww.lavenderhillstudio.com
